We found the hissing sounds in freezer. When we looked, the coils as seen through the slots in the back, were red from heat. The metal in the back of the freezer was hot to the touch. We had a repair person visit today and he said this is normal. It is how the freezer defrosts.

Hi,This is Lisa from GE. I am happy to help. In a no frost refrigerator, the defrost timer activates defrost heaters in the evaporator section (rear of freezer) which heat up and melt the frost off the evaporator coils. This process lasts for approximately 25-45 minutes and usually happens up to twice a day.

During this time, there will be no running sounds, no fan noise, and you may hear water dripping or sizzling as it hits the heaters. On side by side models, you may even be able to see an orange glow at the bottom of the freezer.

I only have 2 inches to spare between left wall and the appliance. Will I still be able to open door at least 90 degrees and will that be open enough to allow me to use wire basket and to take out ice tray if needed? Thanks!!

Hello,This is Joyce from GE. I will be happy to help. Side by Side refrigerators with an icemaker require 11 1/4" on the freezer side to remove the ice bin if the door is obstructed & only available to open to 90 degrees.

If doors cannot be fully opened because of an obstruction or a wall on either side, a door stop should be provided to prevent door or wall damage. If doors can't open at least 90 degrees, access to the drawers is limited.

In order to remove the fresh food pans with a 90 degree door opening you will need to remove door bins first.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by DoctorO We Love This Slate Ice Box
My wife and I so pleased and surprised at the the marvelous slate finish and stainless handles that are truly fingerprint resistant. We purchased on line without seeing the finish first. The appearance and ergonomics of dimming lights and glass shelves and overall space saving is superb. Doors open and close easily, silently and securely. Love the door ajar alarm feature. Ice maker started slow but attain adequate production in a few days. Seals on the meat and veggie compartments are sturdy. This is a very nice and quiet box and we are most satisfied with not getting an indoor ice-maker model. This is a great unit for the price and features.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by chiefsfan313 What can I say...It's an amazing fridge
I bought this fridge along with the dishwasher, microwave and stove in the Slate color. First of all the Slate color is beautiful. It really sets off our dark cabinets and wood flooring. It is a smudge free scratch resistant surface that really looks nice. The ice and water feature are made very well. The digital outside temperature controls are very convenient and work as they should. I also like the door alarm because I have a 15 year old daughter who tends to get distracted and leaves the door open upon occasion. I would recommend this to anybody who wants style and features in a decent price(I got mine on sale for $1198.00).

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by BBBB Nice Fridge
My existing Fridge was 28 years old and was starting to make noises, so decided it was time to purchase a new one. Decided on a side by side because we wanted an ice/water dispenser. Love the large shelves on the door which hold gallon jugs. Has a lot of space and my produce seems to last longer in the drawers compared to my old one. However, it is noisy at times when running. I definitely know when it is running. My 28 year old one was not that loud. Overall, pleased with the purchase.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Snowflake Looks great, but sticky.
I've had this fridge for around 4 months now and I really like the looks of it. I have noticed the strange sounds (little startling at times) that others mentioned. However, I would recommend it as long as it didn't come with sticky material on the front panel. Details below.
My main complaint is that when the fridge was delivered, it had sticky material (like tape adhesive) on multiple areas (large areas) on the front edges of the fridge. I asked the delivery guy about it and he said that it was caused from the plastic and they've been telling the manufacturer about this issue. I asked him how to remove it (in my opinion I shouldn't have to clean a new fridge) and he said to use rubbing alcohol. Well, I tired that on one area and it didn't all come off and that area looks a little darker than the rest of the slate area. Not too happy about this at all!!

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by KirkD Great price on a great Refrigerator
Not sure what the deal was with the earlier comment about noise. This is the quietest refrigerator I have ever had! The only sound is when it drops ice. Great features, great price, Thank you Home Depot. Delivery was spot on. And thank you GE for making such a great appliance!! Those worried about finger prints or smudges, try using furniture polish, it really works!

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by Orioles Great Refridgerator
Love this refridgerator. So happy we chose it over the others.
We knew we wanted the great slate color which is perfect for our man cave for the
Orioles games in the playoffs!
Husband loves his ice and water dispenser!
Delivery men were super in making sure everything was set up and working properly.
They did a good job making sure that the plastic was removed from around the handles.
Far better decision than stainless. So happy with it.

Another great product I had to buy before the wedding. The last refrigerator lasted 15 years. It is amazing how appliances change. The inside lights are so cool shelves slide out partial to grab things in back. very nice design.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by FuzzyRhino Happy with the product, Ecstatic with the Service from HomeDepot!
We've had this Adora 25.9 cu/ft refrigerator for a couple weeks and couldn't be happier. This unit replaced a basic GE 25.9 cu/ft model, that was damaged during shipping. It turned into a blessing when we chose to upgrade to the Adora model. Most noticeably, the LED lighting. It really makes a difference - particularly in the space of the top shelf (the basic model has an incandescent bulb & cover that interferes with taller items).
Also, I can tell you that the shelves on the Adora are higher quality than the basic model. Before this replacement arrived, the plastic burrs left on the shelves scraped my wife's finger, so I made sure these were different when all the plastic was removed.
I read some reviews about the ice maker clogging up but haven't experienced any issues - it throws the ice out quickly which is great for large water bottles and coolers.
I couldn't be happier with the space, compared to our old Whirlpool - this is a true value for the dollar. Lastly, having lights in the freezer is a real blessing when we come home with groceries. There's truth in the words 'you can't clean what you don't see', so this will be a much cleaner refrigerator simply because of great lighting.
This experience was made excellent by the efforts of Ashley and Mitch, managers at the Lexington SC location - we couldn't have been any happier and certainly couldn't expect any more from a retail business! Thanks for all the help!
